Total time:20 minutes, plus cooling

Serves:
2

Ingredients

6 scoops coffee ice cream (about 250ml)

50ml double cream

1½ tbsp Baileys Irish Cream

2 cherries, to decorate (optional)

CANDIED HAZELNUTS

25g blanched hazelnuts

2 tsp caster sugar

BAILEYS MOCHA SAUCE

70g plain chocolate, broken into squares

2 tsp instant coffee

50ml double cream

2 tsp golden syrup

1½ tbsp Baileys Irish Cream

Method

1. Start by making the candied nuts: put the hazelnuts and caster sugar in a small frying pan and set over a medium heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar has turned a dark golden caramel and the nuts are lightly toasted; take care as it can burn easily. Tip onto a sheet of baking parchment and leave to cool completely before roughly chopping.

2. For the sauce, put all the ingredients, apart from the Baileys, in a small pan. Melt over a medium-low heat for 5 minutes, until combined, then whisk in 1½ tbsp Baileys with a pinch of salt; set aside to cool briefly.

3. Divide the ice cream between 2 glasses or bowls, pouring mocha sauce between the layers, then scatter over most of the chopped candied hazelnuts.

4. Whip the double cream to soft peaks, then ripple through 1½ tbsp Baileys before spooning on top of the sundaes. Finish with the remaining candied hazelnuts and top each with a cherry, if liked.
